NOTE:
•

No destination address needs to be configured for a 6to4 tunnel because the destination address can
automatically be obtained from the IPv4 address embedded in the 6to4 IPv6 address.

•

To encapsulate and forward IPv6 packets whose destination address does not belong to the subnet
where the receiving tunnel interface resides, you need to configure a static route to reach the destination
IPv6 address through this tunnel interface on the device. Because automatic tunnels do not support

dynamic routing, you can configure a static route to that destination IPv6 address with this tunnel

interface as the outbound interface or the peer tunnel interface address as the next hop. A similar
configuration needs to be performed at the other tunnel end. For the detailed configuration, see

IPv6

Static Routing Configuration in the IP Routing Volume.

•

The automatic tunnel interfaces using the same encapsulation protocol cannot share the same source IP
address.

6to4 Tunnel Configuration Example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 9

, two 6to4 networks are connected to an IPv4 network through two 6to4 devices

(Device A and Device B) respectively. Configure a 6to4 tunnel to make Host A and Host B reachable to

each other.
To enable communication between 6to4 networks, you need to configure 6to4 addresses for 6to4

devices and hosts in the 6to4 networks.

•

The IPv4 address of GigabitEthernet 1/2 on Device A is 2.1.1.1/24, and the corresponding 6to4
prefix is 2002:0201:0101::/48 after it is translated to an IPv6 address. Assign interface tunnel 0 to

subnet 2002:0201:0101::/64 and GigabitEthernet 1/1 to subnet 2002:0201:0101:1::/64.

•

The IPv4 address of GigabitEthernet 1/2 on Device B is 5.1.1.1/24, and the corresponding 6to4
prefix is 2002:0501:0101::/48 after it is translated to an IPv6 address. Assign interface tunnel 0 to

subnet 2002:0501:0101::/64 and GigabitEthernet 1/1 to subnet 2002:0501:0101:1::/64.
